Hello everyone. Yes I know that it’s been awhile since the last post but I have been rather slack updating the blog and due to the shitty weather that we’ve been having I haven’t really had a chance to do much outside (well I think that is a good excuse anyway). We’ve actually done a fair bit between the rain etc and have nearly finished the paving only about 10sq metres to go which i should finish by next weekend as i have a couple of days off including the long weekend but if the weather is good I may end up fishing instead, we’ll see what happens. The rainwater tank is in and it is now full due to the huge amounts of rain we have had lately and as you can see in the pictures the yard was under water for a few weeks, at least I know where the drainage problems are now. We’ve been thinking of getting another tank and putting it alongside the other one as there is enough room for it. Retaining wall is finished and my calculations were spot on as we only have about 5 blocks left (lucky). Everything else is cruising along alright, house is good, still haven’t got our light fittings up and all the problems that we found have been fixed even though the paint work inside and out is dodgy but we will end up repainting ourselves at some stage with a colour that doesn’t show grubby children’s handprints etc. That’s it for now and I’ll try to update weekly.
Cheers….
